Simon Baker was the epitome of dapper on the red carpet at the opening ceremony of the 20th Marrakech International Film Festival in Morocco on Friday.
The Australian actor, 54, was all smiles as he stepped out solo for the event, wearing a black suit and black bow tie.
He styled his blond locks off his face while still sporting his signature curls.
Simon, who has recently been sighted with a mystery blonde rumoured to be his new girlfriend, accessorised with a pair of black leather shoes and thick rimmed glasses.
The Limbo star was later seen posing on the carpet with Japanese film director Naomi Kawase.
The Mentalist star has been spending a lot of time with a mystery blonde lately.
Last month, the pair were spotted enjoying a quick dip at Sydney’s Tamarama Beach.
Prior to that, he was seen with the same woman in April, when they spent Easter weekend frolicking at Byron Bay beach.
And in March, she was seen picking him up from Sydney Airport.
Last year in November, he was spotted enjoying a dip in Bondi with a blonde beauty, believed to be the same woman who picked him up at the airport.
In November 2021, his ex Laura May Gibbs spoke publicly for the first time about her split from the Hollywood star.
The Byron Bay activewear designer, 36, categorically denied rumours the actor broke up with her because she attended an anti-vaccine mandate protest.
Laura slammed this ‘false narrative’ about their split in a lengthy Instagram post, declaring it was ‘simply not true’.
Before that, Simon’s spokesperson confirmed he and Laura had quietly parted ways.
Simon announced his split from wife Rebecca Rigg in January 2021, after 29 years of marriage.
It was reported at the time that the pair had quietly separated some time in 2020.
The pair told PEOPLE in a joint statement: ‘We remain close friends and our three children will always be the most important focus of our lives.’
Australian actor Baker first met actress Rigg, 55, in the early ’90s and the former couple share three children together, Stella, 30, Claude, 24, and Harry, 22.
